Frobishers Juices sales and marketing director Steve Carter said: "The acquisition of Five Valleys Cordials is an exciting move for Frobishers and will be our first step into the off-trade market.

"Five Valleys Cordials is a great fit for Frobishers as our companies share a similar ethos."

"Five Valleys Cordials is a great fit for Frobishers as our companies share a similar ethos of using all-natural ingredients to produce the finest quality juices and juice drinks.

"Our product lines both appeal to the same discerning adult consumer, who will now be able to enjoy Frobishers when they are drinking and dining in bars and restuarants and Five Valleys Cordials when they’re at home."
